1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Jingmenviruses are a category of emerging segmented viruses that have garnered global attention in recent years, and are close relatives of the flaviviruses in the Flaviviridae family. One of their genome segments encodes NSP1 homologous to flavivirus NS5. NSP1 comprises both the methyltransferase (MTase) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) modules playing essential roles in viral genome replication and capping. Here we solved a 1.8-Å resolution crystal structure of the NSP1 RdRP module from Jingmen tick virus (JMTV), the type species of jingmenviruses. The structure highly resembles flavivirus NS5 RdRP despite a sequence identity less than 30%. NSP1 RdRP enzymatic properties were dissected in a comparative setting with several representative Flaviviridae RdRPs included. Our data indicate that JMTV NSP1 produces characteristic 3-mer abortive products similar to the hepatitis C virus RdRP, and exhibits the highest preference of terminal initiation and shorter-primer usage. Unlike flavivirus NS5, JMTV RdRP may require the MTase for optimal transition from initiation to elongation, as an MTase-less NSP1 construct produced more 4-5-mer intermediate products than the full-length protein. Taken together, this work consolidates the evolutionary relationship between the jingmenvirus group and the Flaviviridae family, providing a basis to the further understanding of their viral replication/transcription process.
